Why Surprise, Arizona?
There is great interest in serving and supporting our veterans here in the West Valley, and in serving veterans we recognize that there is work that still needs to be done. Our VetLink group has provided service to over 1000+ veterans in the State of Arizona. We are confident that our name recognition, due to positive feedback and word of mouth will help our program grow over time.
We are fortunate that our office is located one building away from our local American Job Center. We have established a very good working partnership to share resources to support our veterans within the community. The Arizona@Work has a satellite office that specializes in job placement and job training, however the location in Surprise is a social services One-Stop-Shop. Our partnership with the Surprise Resource Center, will allow us to create a veteran focused job reintegration program in the West Valley that could significantly change lives in a matter of weeks!
We currently have a volunteer staff of trained cyber security instructors from the Arizona Cyber Warfare Range. These individuals are professionals in the cybersecurity field who only want to pay it forward and share what they know to help members of the community. We also have volunteers in the community who are committed to helping veterans and available for a variety of program support.
The City of Surprise has already allocated space for the Cyber Warfare Range at the AZ TechCelerator, where our home office is located. They have been very supportive to our cause and have welcomed the opportunity to host events at this location pertaining to this and other programs for our veterans.
